Every African American should be eager to learn U.S. History because the history of minorities in this country IS U.S. History.

I hope this thread can stay away from the stereotypical and stupid.

ok seriously... Every African-American should be able to trace their lineage as far back as they can. (you may learn more than you knew before)

embrace a healthy lifestyle... watch what you eat, or if you eat what you want anyway get set to do an extra 20 on the treadmill.

Take care of one another. We are our own worst enemy.

I'm talking about pre-college, especially in the elementary years. Not just sending your child to a private/parochial school, but also purposely moving into an all white (or almost) school district. I hear one horror story after another. I understand that some schools provide more educational opportunities, but because of the isolation that many kids may experience, I'm not sure if it is worth it.

should find a way to support black-owned businesses. If we don't support our entrepreneurial spirit, then who will?

I was thinking more along the lines of black people who think we should (insert stereotype).

Another one....

All black people should know that we don't have to conform to a certain way of doing things.
